r/Talonmains

Which works best for low elo? I'd assume conq to help with tougher match ups and the longer fights.

So I recently started playing and eventually OTP'ING graves after I saw a lot of my fav content creators making content on him and I've found him very strong and very versatile, and he is one of the most picked junglers in the game with a positive WR, so obviosly very broken. Even all the high elo creators I saying Graves Jungle is busted.

My question is, why is Talon Jungle not busted? I feel like he is a very versatile champions who is not that hard to pilot but allows for a lot of skill expression in his kit, similar to graves. Why is Talon jungle not in a similar position to graves then?

Otp yone wanna learn talon. Yone’s build is super strict and has has clear reasoning for every item and the order in which to build. I wasn’t sure if talon had any strict “must go this” items/runes.

Also specific questions since i’ve never played an assassin:

Why don’t a lot of talons build axiom arc earlier?

I plan on running stormraiders surge, does that change build priority at all? (I don’t really like yomuus and would like to rush cyclo for wave clear to roam, but i just don’t understand if it’s necessary or not)

Do i need armor pen item 3rd or 4th?

What are the reasons i shouldn’t start mana tear and bring second wind? (I don’t really care for solo kills in lane, however am i losing too much value elsewhere by bringing a sustain setup to farm early?)

Anything else you care to add please do, go into as much detail as possible

Magical footwear gives slightly better boots, buts that’s all it does. In first item buy cashback almost gives enough gold for normal boots, not to mention 1600 gold over the course of the game.
